Newsflash(ish): Summer Simplicity and New Look Patterns

The latest offerings from Simplicity and New Look are here. Overall I have to say that the designs are pretty similar to what we've seen from all the other pattern companies lately - voluminous tops, basic dresses, and lots of jumpsuits (or jumpsuit-looking-separates). Nothing I'm super excited about (except maybe some of the costumes), but enough here that I might pick a few up at the next pattern sale...

NL6384 - The tops are pretty dull, but the skirts/pants look easy to make and comfy to wear.

NL6370 - Basic princess seamed dress. Nice, but similar to other patterns.

NL6371 - Not really loving this dress. Sort of meh.

And that's it! So, what is everyone thinking? Any patterns you are excited to add to the stash? Or do we all have enough jumpsuit patterns in our stash by this point? Feel free to discuss in the comments!

About Me

I love to sew, skate, and read! I am documenting my sewing adventure including pattern reviews, fabric stashing, and my obsession with Burda magazine. I am also a competitive roller skater who is working to pass her gold medal tests. I like to read, mostly fantasy though I dabble in a bit of everything, and somehow in the middle of all of this I ended up with a PhD in chemistry.
